Wake up galaxy s5

Wake up galaxy s5

It was my understanding that I could wake my phone from lock screen and go into S-Voice by saying the wake up command "Hi Galaxy" as long as I had lock screen set to "Swipe" without password. I have tried everything for last week including changing wake up phrase per Samsung instructions and cannot get it to work.

It is a bit unclear how this should work.

I can get my voice wake up phrase to open the mic when I am inside S Voice, which I can start with the home key double click, but I thought my wake up command was supposed to start S Voice when I was viewing, for example, my home page. It does not. Should it? The phone is unlocked at the point in time I say my wake up phrase, but nothing happens.

If I say "OK Google" - the Google voice search starts right away, so why can't S Voice do the same?

If im not mistaken you have to choose one or the other. Both of them cant be listening to the mic at the sametime. I maybe wrong but it could be the issue
